Synopsis

‘WOW! WOW! WOW! I LOVED this FABULOUS thriller … I was hooked from the start! There were twists and turns and moments when my stomach churned and if I could have and read it in one go I certainly would have done.’ Goodreads Reviewer

Murky water sloshed through the gaps in the jetty’s algae-covered planks. Electricity ran down her spine. The victim’s torso was missing circles of flesh. Jess had seen marks like this before a long time ago. But that killer was already dead, wasn’t he?

When the lifeless body of a young woman is found washed up in the blisteringly hot back waters of a small town, Detective Jess Bishop knows for certain this isn’t the murderer’s first kill.

Two other bodies have been found, both bearing the same marks. Marks that strike fear into Jess’s heart. They are identical to those from a case she’s spent her entire career trying to forget.

As Jess and her team try to link the victims, another body is discovered, and they fear the serial killer is taunting them. They know it’s only a matter of time before he kills again.

As the body count rises, and the hunt goes cold, Jess knows she has to confront her past in order to catch the killer, even if that means making herself the bait…

Forget Me Not is a gripping and heart-stopping thriller full of twists and perfect for fans of Robert Dugoni, Karin Slaughter, Robert Bryndza and Lisa Gardner.

‘This book deserves all the #OMFGs as it grabbed me in from the start, chewed me up and spat me out at the other end crying for more! … Tense and fast-paced, and may I say perfectly executed, the plot kept me on tenterhooks all the way through it! … So many twists, turns and red herrings that you are going to be twisted like a corkscrew by the time you put this book down! … A read that will pick away at your brains and leave you reeling! Do not miss it!’ Chapter in My Life

‘Wow, talk about an intense ride. I absolutely fell in love with Jess Bishop … I can't wait to get my hands on the next book … Kierney Scott is clearly one of if not the best crime thriller authors of our time.’ Goodreads Reviewer

‘Brilliant, can’t wait for book 2!! I can’t believe this is Kierney Scott’s first crime novel. It’s brilliantly crafted to keep you guessing with enough gore and bodies for any crime fiction fan.’ Crime Book Junkie

‘Oh, I am hooked on Jessica Bishop! My kind of female character...clever, stubborn, different and an FBI agent to boot.’ Goodreads Reviewer

‘I couldn’t put it down. Kierney Scott kept me guessing the whole way through and made me gasp when the pieces all started to fit together.’ The Girl with all the Books

‘A fast thrilling serial killer book! This book has everything what I want in my book.’ Goodreads Reviewer

‘What I liked most about this thriller is that the main character Jess Bishop is extremely flawed, the most flawed detective since Sherlock Holmes himself. Even better, she’s female. With a love of strong red wine, an attitude to kick ass and a slight sex addiction, I absolutely loved Jess Bishop.’ Life Has a Funny Way of Sneaking Up on You

Just brilliant

Really enjoyed this book. So glad that this is the first in what hopefully will be a series. No spoilers but what an intriguing central character that you really want to know better and follow. I cannot imagine how she will grow after this but cannot wait to find out. Hopefully the whole department will be developing as well as they were all quite intriguing parts of the whole plot.

One Helluva Well Plotted Thriller!

This is one for those who like their murders gritty and don’t mind graphic descriptions. It is one helluva well plotted thriller.
First in a new series in what I understand is a new genre for author Kierney Scott, and it makes for compulsive reading. I love the lead character of FBI Special Agent Jess Bishop who comes complete with flaws and she makes for riveting reading. Slowly, bit by bit her history comes to light as the layers are peeled back in tandem with the case progression. There is plenty to mull over as you read on – this book is packed with information.
Whilst realising that the details are integral to solving the murders, for me personally I could have done without quite as many gory descriptions – but that’s just me. I have plenty of friends where that will be the big attraction! I tend to take crime thrillers as they come, rarely working out who did what and to whom but I worked this one out about half way through – it seemed so obvious to me and despite a few red herrings along the way I never doubted who the killer was. Unusually, I was right!
However, that said I would love to read more about Jess and her colleagues and will surely be looking out for the second book. As long as you aren’t squeamish, I would certainly recommend this one!
My thanks to Bookouture for allowing me to access an arc via NetGalley. This is my honest, original and unbiased review.

heartstopping rollercoaster ride

Jess Bishop has problems and she knows it. Her childhood hero, her father, did the unthinkable and till this day Jess can’t coop with he damage he inflicted on her. She has a hard time trusting people and always holds them at arms length. One of the few people she let into her life, her FBI partner Jamison, left her for a undercover job and when he is back, he seems to be a changed man. When there are bodies found decapitated and the limps cut off, suspicions arise. Could it be the work of a law enforcement worker?
This was a really great read. It was easy to get drawn into the story and feeling the anxiety and horror Jess must have felt with every new body found. And when everything was solved, the killer unmasked, it felt good. But there is so much more I want to know about Jess, that I can’t wait for the next book. I chose to read this book and all opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased. Thanks to NetGalley and Endeavour Press!

Thrilling and gripping

Now You See Me by Kierney Scott is so well written! A great thriller with layered twist and turns that kept me guessing who the killer was. I could not put this book down, i was so enthralled ...i kept saying one more chapter and before i knew it, i was done the book. I love that the main character is damaged and is developing who she is, even though her past will haunt her future!
The ending made me do ...omg...i friggin love this book! This book is gripping and intense....leaves you wanting more...Kierney Scott is brilliant and master storyteller!!
